Accident lawyer

Accident lawyer in Kyiv

If you get into a traffic accident, you should not panic, but immediately contact a car accident lawyer and / or clearly follow the necessary algorithm of actions, which in the future (when considering an administrative protocol or a civil lawsuit in court) will become the key to success.

Priority actions at the scene of an accident are important for further consideration of the case, since in the future it will be almost impossible to reliably establish the circumstances of the accident.

The auto lawyer below describes the algorithm of actions on how to act if you become a participant in an accident

Stop immediately, even if the accident occurred in the center of the roadway (if you drive further, stop and walk back to the scene of the accident, this may cause the police to draw up an administrative report on leaving the scene of the accident, in addition, there will be difficulties when filling out the scheme from the scene of the accident) .

The Accident Lawyer recommends following the following algorithm of actions:

Report the accident to other road users: turn on the emergency alarm, put an emergency stop sign on the roadway;
Call the necessary services to the scene of the incident (police officers, representatives of insurance companies, if there are victims, an ambulance)
Until the arrival of the police, your car, like the cars of other participants in the accident, as well as other items, must be in the same place where they were immediately after the accident.
In no case should cars be moved from the scene of an accident before the arrival of the police and representatives of insurance companies.
Proper fixation by police officers of the location of cars, braking distances, glass fragments, etc. are the key to correctly establishing the circumstances of the incident and identifying the perpetrators;
Try to find eyewitnesses of the accident and exchange contacts with them. Your passengers are also witnesses, the police must take explanations from them about the circumstances of the accident (if a police officer refuses to take explanations from your passengers, referring to the fact that they are interested parties and can testify in your favor, be sure to indicate this fact in the comments and / or objections to the record of an administrative offense with fixing the full details of the persons who were witnesses
Using your phone (photo, video), record the scene of the accident in detail (it is worth doing this immediately after the accident, before the police arrive)
Monitor the police’s process of mapping out the accident and how they described the damage to the vehicles. The maximum amount of information will provide an opportunity to receive maximum compensation and fairness of the consideration of the administrative protocol in court;
Carefully reread the documents drawn up by the police, make your comments or additions to them and make sure that they are written down, only after that sign them.

The Accident Lawyer does the following:

Analysis of the current legislation to identify changes and additions;
Analysis of insurance documents (insurance policy, report on the assessment of the cost of material damage, insurance act, etc.);
Analysis of payment documents;
Preparation of a reasoned opinion on the presence (absence) of the right to return the amount of insurance compensation;
Preparation and submission of an application (requirement) for the payment of insurance compensation;
Detailed analysis of the protocol on an administrative offense;
Analysis of judicial practice for the period of the last 2 months of the return of money for legal assistance;
Preparation and filing of a claim (denial, motions, statements, etc.) to the court;
Participation in court hearings;
Obtaining a court decision.

Legal assistance in case of an accident

Protection of the rights of the culprit (victim) in an accident has certain features and requires special knowledge and experience in this area, therefore, we recommend that an accident lawyer represent your interests, since in addition to disputes with insurance, in some cases representation may be required within the framework of administrative and criminal proceedings.
